This book provides an integrated treatment of blockmodeling, the
most frequently used technique in social network analysis. It
secures its mathematical foundations and then generalizes
blockmodeling for the analysis of many types of network structures.
Examples are used throughout the text and include small group
structures, little league baseball teams, intra-organizational
networks, inter-organizational networks, baboon grooming networks,
marriage ties of noble families, trust networks, signed networks,
Supreme Court decisions, journal citation networks, and alliance
networks. Also provided is an integrated treatment of algebraic and
graph theoretic concepts for network analysis and a broad
introduction to cluster analysis. These formal ideas are the
foundations for the authors' proposal for direct optimizational
approaches to blockmodeling which yield blockmodels that best fit
the data, a measure of fit that is integral to the establishment of
blockmodels, and creates the potential for many generalizations and
a deductive use of blockmodeling.
